BOX 125-251 Correspondence Files, 1897-1979
The Correspondence Files constitute half of the collection and primarily contain correspondence regarding minor and major gifts acquired by the Exchange and Gift Division as well as items received by exchange, deposit, and transfer. Records from predecessor Library units, such as the Order Division, also are included. Some of the physical records that were microfilmed and preserved from the Card Index and Case Files series are found among the "Important Gift Correspondence" in this series. This set of correspondence documents donations of major gifts from or related to historical figures and entities in American history. The correspondence among the deposit files track items deposited into the Library’s holdings under temporary terms, including when the materials were returned to the depositor, and when deposited items were later donated to the Library’s permanent collections. The records also document the division's collecting activities related to braille transcriptions received for the Reading Room for the Blind (now the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled) and materials acquired for the Hispanic Foundation (later the Hispanic Division, and now part of the Latin American, Caribbean, and European Division), a reading room dedicated to Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin American studies. Interfiled with the correspondence are memoranda, gift lists, genealogies, intra-Library transfers, and other material.
Material types include correspondence, memoranda, reports, lists, photostats, printed matter, and one audiocassette.
Arranged chronologically by fiscal year (July through June the following year) or alphabetically by name of correspondent.
